Get the Olhausen. Older Brunswicks were OK but their lower-price lines these days aren't worth much. If you can pay the extra $800 get the Olhausen. And isn't it frustrating when you ask a simple question and all these guys yammer away without answering it?

Calling Rtoron's post a rant is ridiculous. He's merely stating his point of view in a reasonable way. It's OK to disagree and if you do feel free to state your opposing points. I tend to agree with him but I also feel that anyone that has the money and wants to buy a $10,000 custom cue should...

I've played Pechauer for awhile now and after playing with McDermott, Lucasi, OB, Joss, Meucci and others Pechauer is my cue of choice. I prefer the JP to the Pro series, as they have a slightly softer hit. I just bought myself another, custom stained version (and Pechauer did a great job...

Custom stained Pechauer cue, photos attached I just received my custom stained cue and it's beautiful. I added the Pro+ shaft and will post a separate review after I play with it. I'm officially a Pechauer guy.

I think Pechauer cues are great. I've never played with Mezz but to say you've never heard of anyone who likes them, that's just crazy. Everyone I've known who uses them (and there are many here in Charleston) thinks they're great cues, and the absolute best player in the city uses his as he...

So sorry to hear about your home. Good luck with everything. Anyway, the Meucci's I've played with I haven't liked but would never have bought one regardless due to all the negative comments on this site. I did a lot of research using this site when I first stared playing a while back and bought...

I own a Pechauer JP-09N (now the JP-07Q). It's a great stick and my favorite over McDermott, Lucasi, or OB's I've owned and several others I've tried. I originally bought it because it was Pechauer's least expensive no-wrap cue but never particularly liked the gray pearl color scheme. However I...

Great choice! A classic look and I hope you continue to enjoy it. I'm actually in the same position. Although I earlier counseled conservative spending I already own a lower end Pechauer and although it plays great I plan to buy myself something I think is better-looking for Christmas...

I just got back from a trip to the Asheville area of NC and went to Fat Cat's. I thought it was a great place. Lots of classic Brunswick tables of various sizes and the felt was in pretty good shape on most of them. Reasonable rates for hourly play, friendly staff. I would go again. I didn't...

Do you feel compelled to spend $700? Why? All the brands you mention start well below that, and their low-end cues play exactly like their $1000 cues, the only difference being the number in inlays and how exotic the woods used. Do you want to buy a cue made in the U.S? I love my Pechauer. If...

Pechauer or OB I've owned Lucasi, Schmelke, Pechauer, McDermott and recently bought an OB. I've only been playing a little over a year but play a lot and have gotten pretty good. As I've learned the game my tastes have changed. First I loved my Lucasi, then was a McDermott guy. Now it's between...

Hey Bank it. If you're going to be needlessly negative and sarcastic you should at least know what you're talking about. If cues have joint protectors on them it really doesn't matter which way you put them in a case. Your method may be the majority opinion and it's the way I do it as well but...

I'm still fairly new to the game, only been playing about a year but working hard to get better and play 4-5 times per week for an hour or 2. I got talked into an APA league team last session and had a wonderful time playing both 8 and 9-ball divisions. I was hoping to win as many as I lost...

Why are you selling them, and no photos?

McDermott. For only a couple more dollars you can get a G series with the G-core shaft. I have a Pechauer, Lucasi, and Schmelke (which you might want to consider; great little company, great prices and a lot of positive feedback on this site) and I like them all but always seem to pull my...

Hi Brkem9; thanks for the info. Thinking about moving to the Hilton Head area and they don't have a good pool venue. Hopefully this place will fill the void and stay in business. There are a lot of working class people that provide the service for all the wealthy retirees and hopefully they...

I have 2 no-wrap cues like your Mezz. Just bought a McDermott G230 custom ordered with different stains than the standard because it comes with a bright blue I think is horrendous. Anyway...4 sets of metal rings and if you were blindfolded you'd have no idea where they were. The butt is...

Sorry you had a bad experience with them. I've bought twice from Budget and they were helpful and friendly both times, and responses to my inquiries were immediate.
